  • Trout Cover and Relationship to Trout Abundance in Batten Kill
    Assessment of Trout Cover and Its Relationship to Trout Abundance in the Batten Kill Main Stem and Four Rivers in Reference Watersheds Kenneth M. Cox Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department 100 Mineral Street, Suite 302 Springfield, Vermont 05156 April 2010 Abstract Cover is an important habitat component especially for a cover oriented species as the brown trout. This habitat feature was measured at 16 stream sections located among river main stems in four separate watersheds in Vermont. Linear regression and correlation analyses were conducted on estimates of available cover in each study section and four years of population estimates representing yearling and older segments of the trout populations. Significant positive correlations in the Batten Kill between cover abundance and trout standing stock were observed for brook trout but less so for brown trout. While these results may indicate the importance of cover in predicting trout standing stock in some years, they also suggest other factors may be of greater influence on populations in other years. Estimates of cover abundance in the Batten Kill and the four reference rivers are generally well below conditions recommended in the published literature as providing desirable habitat for brown trout. Providing other habitat (water quality) factors, such as summer water temperature maxima, are not limiting trout populations in cover deficient streams and trout mortality due to angling is not a significant limiting factor; river management practices that restore and maintain desired levels of cover in stream channels may help increase yearling and older brown and brook trout abundance. Introduction During the mid 1990s a precipitous decline in catchable-size brown trout Salmo trutta abundance occurred in the Batten Kill main stem of Vermont that was reflected in annual population assessment surveys conducted by the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department (VFWD) and in anglers’ catch.

    FINAL PROGRAMMATIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CONSERVATION RESERVE ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM FOR VERMONT US Department of Agriculture Farm Service Agency June 2005 Programmatic Environmental Assessment for Implementation of the Vermont Final Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program Agreement EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) describes the potential environmental consequences resulting from the proposed implementation of Vermont’s Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) Agreement (Vt CREP , 2005). The environmental analysis process is designed: to ensure the public is involved in the process and informed about the potential environmental effects of the proposed action; and to help decision makers take environmental factors into consideratio n when making decisions related to the proposed action. This PEA has been prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Farm Service Agency (FSA) in accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, the Council on Environmental Quality regulations implementing NEPA, and 7 CFR 799 Environmental Quality and Related Environmental Concerns – Compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act. Purpose and Need for the Proposed Action The purpose of the proposed action is to implement Vermont’s CREP agreement. Under the agreement, eligible farmland in the State that drains into Lake Champlain and the Connecticut River would be voluntarily removed from production and approved conservation
